California dreaming
This list of swoon-worthy American brands I own is booming – first, it was Spanish Moss – the site that not only sells some of the best vintage pieces that I’ve seen in a long time (if a little overpriced), but also exudes an air of raw femininity. For a good decade or so I’ve lusted…

Oh hello, love-of-my-life
Now, if you ask anyone knows me to share a thing or two about auld muggins (that’s me), they’ll probably tell you at some point that I’m a big fan of all things religious. Nope, I don’t hang out at the church on Sundays, and yes, I’m sorry to say, the lord’s name is often…

Rockin’ blooms
Just in at New York boutique Married to the Mob: utterly amazing leggings printed with a serious hothouse of florals. It’s a close call, but we reckon the Full Bloom Leggings (bottom) have it. However, we’d be happy with any of these babies – they are extraordinarily HOT.

The Vintage Event at Balham Bowls Club
As the sun shines and Londoners put the riots to the back of their minds, today was a day of celebration for all – at least in Balham, where the Vintage Event came to town. The event is organised by a mother and daughter duo and plotted itself up in the most perfect of locations;…

A long-standing love affair
I freely admit it—I’m having an affair. A very long, lustful liaison that’s turned me into a lumberjack shirt hoarder. Take a look below to see exactly what’s sneaked into my wardrobe since my last post…. Checks, I love you.

A crafty lady named Messy Jesse
In the Eco Office, it would seem we’re a bit of a creative bunch. Between us, we have photographers, writers, bloggers, musicians and even a gymnast! The most common pastime, however, would appear to be that good old fashioned skill – sewing. One of our in-house seamstresses is Messy Jesse, a lovely bubbly little lady…

Downpours and inventions at Vintage Goodwood
On Friday afternoon, after a few back seat beers and cheesy poofs, we arrived at Vintage Goodwood just in time for the heavens to open, as if on command and right as we began to pitch our tents. Thankfully, the boys became men (momentarily at least) and allowed us ladies to saunter off in the…

Mulberry & Me
After a year and a half in The Fashion Office with the lovely ladies including those from A Work in Progress, Sartoriology, Notes on the Highstreet and My New Favourite Thing, yesterday was my last day. It’s been a fun, interesting 18 months too but it’s time to move on to what will be known…

Love Thy Vintage
A few of the lovely ladies in The Fashion Office often comment on how many vintage dresses I own which made me realise quite how much of a retro hoarder i am. So as I’d previously decided to do a bit of a bank holiday wardrobe de-clutter, I thought I’d share a few of my…
